“El Porto is one of the most famous coffee shops in Los Angeles. Although the lines can be very long, the taste is worth the wait. Attached is an image of the egg croissant I ordered for breakfast, accompanied by a Matcha. ? The staff is very friendly and speaks Spanish ?. You can choose to eat in or order takeout.Personally, I'm not a big fan of bread, so I don't know if I would wait that long on my own. However, this time we arrived at 7am and it was a bit empty; It took us approximately 10 minutes to be attended to.”

I also appreciated that they added sour cream to the burrito, which made it even more flavorful. The prices were quite reasonable compared to other food court restaurants, which was a plus. Overall, I highly recommend Leo's Tacos and would definitely eat there again.”

“Good honest American Chinese food. I ordered the mushroom chicken, sweet and pungent shrimp, wonton soup, and fried cream cheese wontons. I enjoyed the dense fried batter used on the sweet and pungent shrimp. The sauce was light and not overly sweet. I enjoyed the dark mushrooms in the mushroom chicken. The sauce did not over power the vegetables, nor was it over salty. The wonton soup was incredible. The filling in the wontons provides additional flavor with a hint of caraway or anise. The broth was lite and not briny. Probably the best Chinese restaurant in Downey.”

“First time eating at this chain, i did a curbside pickup order of the double burger and onion rings and a belt for lunch for my night shift work.the burger wasn’t bad at all, the onion rings were heavily salted and the batter was just too crispy.the boy woulda been bomb but for me was lacking enough mayo, making it too dry.overall i would eat here again just would go with fries over the rings”

Potato Corner 251 Stonewood St, Downey Fast Food • $

“This place used to be one of those places that at first glance used to be like any other gimmicky potato selling place. It wasn't. The sweet potato fries with whatever you decided to sprinkle on them were delicious. The tots, wings and tenders were pretty good too.Today I visited one for the first time in a while. To my surprise and shock, they no longer have sweet potato as an option which I felt was the star of this whole food experience.I hope this is temporary and something that's up with this particular location. Had they had the sweet potato as an option for fries this place would definitely be a 5 star for me.”

“I love the molcajete at this place and their handmade tortillas. The only bad thing is that for takeout they charge you an extra charge for packing your molcajete with the rice and beans separately. It's absurd because that dish is not served all together and for takeout. It should be the same without any extra charge in the head, it is possible to deliver a molcajete to take away in a single container, everything mixed apart that they use a small plate where all the sauce is in the bag and all the guacamole mixed with everything, Mr. Manager, be careful, the customers deserve the same quality both in the restaurant and for takeaway, they charge us the same, their dishes must be served in the same way without abusing the customer”

You can choose to eat in or order takeout.Personally, I'm not a big fan of bread, so I don't know if I would wait that long on my own.

“We stopped in for brunch and we were very pleased. When we got there three buffet didn't have variety. Most of the trays were empty but that's ok, what we had was delicious.I ordered the veggie omelette. Everything had so much flavor. My choice of drink was the agua fresca watermelon flavor. Refreshing!!!We sat outside and the vibe was fun. The music was really good. Our waiter was fun but it took him awhile to get back to us. My suggestion.... When you order your drinks, order your food at the same time. We placed our drink order and still needed time to look over the menu for the entree. He brought it drinks and was gone for quite she time. We weren't in a rush and the ambience was nice so...I Guess not a huge deal. ?We will be back, the food was very good.”
